Givenchy Oblique Fast Forward is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000, created by Alberto Morillas and Ilias Ermenidis. Oblique Fast Forward opens with Sea Water, Green, and Melon, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Sichuan Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk and Cedar. Givenchy's Oblique Fast Forward carries an Acquired verdict, a marine-led wear.

A lost gem from the 00s, Oblique Fast Forward has a cult following of devotees literally begging for its return. Its clean, subtle freshness feels distinctly modern, proving that sometimes, they really don't make them like they used to. A true 'if you know, you know' scent.

About

Dive into a unique aquatic experience with a splash of sea water and a hint of juicy melon. The heart unfolds with a clean, ethereal jasmine, given an unexpected kick by Sichuan pepper. It settles into a soft, musky cedar base, leaving a subtle, fresh, and slightly woody trail that feels both natural and refined.
